Mediterranean Short Rib

A Boneless Beef Short Rib at Zorba’s Taverna Restaurant and Bar, braised in citrus and white wine paired with kalamata olive and roasted tomato demi-glace, and served with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli ($16.99). Don’t let the fancy demi-glace description fool you, this was a straight-up guy’s meal: meat, potato, and vegetable, served simply, nothing touching anything else on the plate.  The force of gravity was enough to cut through the rib. The rib was packed with unbelievable flavor, and there was plenty of that sweet, tangy, fancy-sounding sauce left over for the potatoes.  The broccoli was al dente, nothing fancy.  The meat, however, was the star of this show, because this was indeed a guy’s meal. -JD
